Amps Dan lol! Samsung 7. Bought solely for the health apps. Family heart issues. Not a watch wearer for the most part. Didn’t fancy any of the Garmin or Google ones, and to get the most out the Apple ones you need an Apple phone, which I can’t be fucked with anymore.
Millsy Garmin are the best by far imho. Had a few other smart watches including Samsung, but the battery life alone makes them a cut above.
Amps Millsy they looked worse than the Samsungs though, their top of the line one was really plasticy, no?
Millsy Amps no they are properly well made mate. I was sceptical but ended up with an Epix 2 and it’s brilliant.
Millsy The sensors on the garmins are a lot better I’ve found, plus if you run or cycle the mapping and Strava integrations are supposed to be the best. It sleep tracks remarkably well and does stuff like HRV too. Basically everything you should need and the battery lasts pretty much all week on one charge. Win. Best price always seems to be at H Samuel for my one: https://www.hsamuel.co.uk/garmin-epix-gen-2-black-silicone-strap-smartwatch/p/V-9119900
Amps Millsy winner… not exactly ‘easy on the eye’ is it 🤣 I have this horrible vision of myself going all in on Apple again ☹️
Millsy Amps Amps you can obviously change the face and the strap mate. The bezel is brushed steel so pretty much up to you what you do with it to make it 100% ‘amps’. I’m sure they’ll do a hemp or hessian strap on Amazon and you can have a photo of Cristina Hendricks on the face with her nipples as hands if you want.
Old-Dutch New phone time after deciding my S21 needs to be retired. Battery life is pony after 3 years. Trigger pulled on this. Had an additional 5% discount with John Lewis so £711. Will keep my 02 deal on £8 a month for unlimited everything https://www.johnlewis.com/samsung-galaxy-z-flip6-5g-foldable-smartphone-12gb-ram-6-7-galaxy-ai-5g-sim-free-256gb/silver-shadow/p112205797?s_ppc=5dx92700072707025280_mixed_technology_BAU&tmad=c&tmcampid=2&msclkid=1eca479b13421ec5b1fd20d048fd1304&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=%5BD%5D%3ATechnology%20-%20%5BBG%5D%3ACommunication%20Tech-%20%5BBO%5D%3AAndroid,%20Wearable%20%26%20Smart%20Home%20-%20%5BC%5D%3ASSC%20-%20Microsoft&utm_term=4578710087409991&utm_content=%5BBO%5D%3AAndroid%20Wearable%20%26%20Smart%20Home%20-%20%5BC%5D%3ASSC&gclid=1eca479b13421ec5b1fd20d048fd1304&gclsrc=3p.ds
Dan Old-Dutch Nearly half the price with a better camera and tech. https://store.google.com/gb/product/pixel_8a?hl=en-GB&pli=1
Mad_Cyril alistair Tell me more. Spent 5 hours clearing leaves at the cabin today, and that was round 2. Hot Tub & red Wine is easing the back pain but I can’t face it again next year!
alistair Mad_Cyril it will change your life mate 😀 https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B07F3M18PF?psc=1&ref=ppx_pop_mob_b_asin_title
Mad_Cyril alistair Thanks mate. Watching the videos that’ll last about 5 minutes 😂 I’m on a forest park in Wales. The leaf piles can be a foot or so. That video wher it demos hoovering up 7 leaves and then warns against the danger of wet ones had me pissing myself!
Mad_Cyril Probs need one of these! https://www.worldofmowers.co.uk/garden-care-equipment/blowers-leaf-vacuum
Mad_Cyril Millsy So it turns out 100 beers is a lot of beers. Cheers I read this and thought, ‘no shit’. Then I remembered ‘Drinkiesgate’ and thought, ‘ah’. Commendable public service Mills 🏅
